*anyone who notices punctuation and spelling mistakes could you kindly point them out =D*

Step 1: First Step on Your Way to the Crossbow

picture 1: put 5 red connecters on a black/strenthened rod

picture 2,3 and 4: add a yellow connecter just like the red and put 2 red rods on either side, then add 9 yellow connecters through the hole like a skewer arranging them like the picture shows after you have done that add green rods to the yellows and then clip a white connecter on to keep them in place, add 4 more yellows and another green rod to the first one and then add a dark grey connecter then another white connecter

It is a good crossbow, but it might help if you had clearer pictures and put all the parts in, instead of "Oh yeah, ad this here". Just a suggestion.
